Very interesting and encouraging Solidww! Especially tht you have FCPx working.

I have Final Cut Pro X 10.0.6. I am also using 10.8.2 since it fully supports the 660ti.

I am wondering sentur, have you seen anyone post that they got their 660 ti to work with 3 monitors. That is one of the biggest reasons I went with this GPU. If I can't get 3 monitors then I will just switch back to the 9800GT as the computer and software were running fine with that card.

Okay, awesomeness. Now, how did you go about this. My computer just won't utilize all the monitors when I plug 3 in. Grrrr

Fresh install of 10.8.2, Nvidia GPU & CUDA drivers. That's all. No multibeast graphics fixes or kexts.

Correct me if I'm wrong but you also need to make sure that you're using supported monitors in terms of if they're digital/analogue output?

According to the cards specs though you can use 4 screens coming off all the output ports.

As always I am a little late to the dance but, I wanted to report that FCPX works great with this card.

Have you tried to do effects (try a few, like Sepia and Film Grain) on the project and see if it will render anything beyond 10-15 min Full HD footage, without Console reporting Open GL errors ?

If you do not get any errors and eminently crash/system crash, then please let us know what version and what drivers your on ? (Mulitibeast/Nvidia official)

Instead of having to go back and read 44 pages....


660ti 670

7870 7950

5870 or 6870 ??


i just returned a msi 660 non ti due to good fps but bad stuttering in games like diablo 2 and gw2


I really would prefer to go 7950 since the high memory bandwidth of radeon cards will help my

27" 2560x1440..


thoughts?

maybe you should just do your own research. IMHO this forum is full of valuable info but it gets cluttered and obscured by way too many posts like that one...

Will try again tonight.

Sentur- Could the fact I am using a DVI to VGA, be the problem. I get all 3 monitors in Windows.

Unklemac2- I have never made a 10-15 minute timeline and not had even Premiere Pro act up with out rendering the timeline. Especially, when applying massive effects.
